 本発明は、水、油脂、サイクロデキストリン、及び水溶性ゲル化剤を含み、タンパク質を実質的に含まない、アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition containing water, fats and oils, cyclodextrin, and a water-soluble gelling agent, and substantially free of proteins.
 アイスクリームは、牛乳、生クリーム、卵黄等の原料を攪拌・混合して凍結して得られる氷菓であり、老若男女問わず人気を博している。 Ice cream is a frozen dessert obtained by stirring and mixing raw materials such as milk, fresh cream, and egg yolk and freezing them, and is gaining popularity regardless of age or gender.
 一方、アイスクリームには乳や卵が含まれるために、それらの原料に対しアレルギーを有する人はアイスクリームを食すことができない。そのため、乳や卵に対しアレルギーを有する人でも食すことが可能な、乳や卵を含まないアイスクリーム様組成物が開発・報告されている。例えば、特許文献1には、水20~45wt.%、油4~40wt.%、サイクロデキストリン、糖を含有する水中油型エマルジョンを含むアイスクリームが開示されている。
 また、特許文献2には、バターオイル、パーム油、糖類、デキストリンを含むアイスクリーム類が記載されているが、バターオイルは乳タンパク質を含む可能性があり、アレルギー表示の対象となっており、実際にアレルギー症例も報告されている。
On the other hand, since ice cream contains milk and eggs, people who are allergic to these ingredients cannot eat ice cream. Therefore, a milk- or egg-free ice cream-like composition that can be eaten by people who are allergic to milk or eggs has been developed and reported. For example, Patent Document 1 states that water is 20 to 45 wt. %, Oil 4-40 wt. An ice cream containing an oil-in-water emulsion containing%, cyclodextrin, and sugar is disclosed.
Further, Patent Document 2 describes ice creams containing butter oil, palm oil, sugars, and dextrin, but butter oil may contain milk protein and is subject to allergy labeling. In fact, allergic cases have also been reported.

For example, the content of cyclodextrin in the ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of the present invention is 0.1% by mass to 5% by mass, preferably 0.5% by mass to 3% by mass, and more preferably 1% by mass to 3. It can be included in an amount appropriately selected from the range of mass%. In addition, in the ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of the present invention, a water-soluble gelling agent is contained in an amount of 0.01% by mass or more, preferably 0.05% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more. For example, it can be contained in an amount of 0.15% by mass or more.

 本発明のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物は、タンパク質を実質的に含まないものとすることができる。タンパク質は一般的に、疎水性アミノ酸残基と親水性アミノ酸残基とから構成され、その両親媒性の特性から乳化作用を有する。そのため、多くの乳化食品において、タンパク質は乳化剤としての機能を果たしている。一般的なアイスクリームでは、原料として含まれる乳や卵に含まれるタンパク質がこの機能を果たしている。一方、本発明においては、水、油脂、サイクロデキストリン、及び水溶性ゲル化剤を含む水中油型エマルジョンを含んでなり、乳化剤として機能するタンパク質を用いなくてもよい。したがって、本発明において「タンパク質を実質的に含まず」や「タンパク質を実質的に含まない」とは、本発明のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物においてタンパク質が乳化作用を発揮する態様で含まれないことを意味し、あらゆるタンパク質が一切含まれないことを必ずしも意味するものではない。好ましくは、本発明のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物1g当たりにおいて、特定原材料(アレルギー物質)等由来のタンパク質含量が10μg未満であることを意味し、さらに好ましくは本発明のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物において、卵や乳をはじめとするアレルギー物質(例えば、特定原材料7品目及び特定原材料に準ずるもの21品目より選択される一又は複数の物質)となるタンパク質が一切含まれないことを意味する。 The ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of the present invention can be substantially free of protein. Proteins are generally composed of hydrophobic amino acid residues and hydrophilic amino acid residues, and have an emulsifying action due to their amphipathic properties. Therefore, in many emulsified foods, the protein functions as an emulsifier. In general ice cream, the protein contained in milk and eggs contained as a raw material fulfills this function. On the other hand, in the present invention, an oil-in-water emulsion containing water, fats and oils, cyclodextrin, and a water-soluble gelling agent may be contained, and a protein that functions as an emulsifier may not be used. Therefore, in the present invention, "substantially free of protein" and "substantially free of protein" are included in the ice cream-like aerobic emulsification composition of the present invention in such a manner that the protein exerts an emulsifying action. It does not necessarily mean that it does not contain any protein at all. Preferably, it means that the protein content derived from a specific raw material (allergic substance) or the like is less than 10 μg per 1 g of the ice cream-like air-containing emulsified composition of the present invention, and more preferably, the ice cream-like air-containing emulsified composition of the present invention. It means that the emulsified composition does not contain any protein that is an allergic substance such as eggs and milk (for example, one or more substances selected from 7 items of specific raw materials and 21 items equivalent to specific raw materials). do.

1.実験方法
(1)アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物の作製
 以下の表1の配合にしたがって、実施例1-5、ならびに比較例1-8のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物を作製した。表中の各成分の量は質量%にて示される。油脂として各種食用植物油脂(ヤシ油(パーム油)、ヒマワリ油、キャノーラ油、米油)を使用した。比較例3は、油脂に代えてタンパク質(牛乳や卵黄)を含んでなり、一般的なアイスクリームに相当するものである。
1. 1. Experimental Method (1) Preparation of Ice Cream-like Air-Containing Emulsified Composition The ice cream-like air-containing emulsified composition of Example 1-5 and Comparative Example 1-8 was prepared according to the formulation shown in Table 1 below. The amount of each component in the table is shown in% by mass. Various edible vegetable oils (palm oil, sunflower oil, canola oil, rice oil) were used as the oils and fats. Comparative Example 3 contains proteins (milk and egg yolk) instead of fats and oils, and is equivalent to general ice cream.
 各配合にしたがって原料をとり合計100g(撹拌前重量)についての体積(撹拌前体積)をメスシリンダーで計測した後、20,000rpm(KINEMATICA社製ポリトロン、type3020/2)で10分間撹拌して混和し、-18℃で10時間凍結して、アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物を調製した。 Take the raw materials according to each formulation, measure the volume (volume before stirring) for a total of 100 g (weight before stirring) with a measuring cylinder, and then stir at 20,000 rpm (Polytron manufactured by KINEMATICA, type3020 / 2) for 10 minutes to mix. Then, it was frozen at -18 ° C. for 10 hours to prepare an ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition.
 得られた実施例1-5のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物は、比較例3の一般的なアイスクリームと同様の柔らかさや滑らかさを有するものであった。一方、比較例1,2,4-8のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物は、実施例1-5のアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物や比較例3の一般的なアイスクリームと比較して、粘り気を有し、ふんわりとした食感を有するものではなかった。 The obtained ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of Example 1-5 had the same softness and smoothness as the general ice cream of Comparative Example 3. On the other hand, the ice cream-like aerated emulsified compositions of Comparative Examples 1, 2 and 4-8 were compared with the ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of Example 1-5 and the general ice cream of Comparative Example 3. It was sticky and did not have a fluffy texture.

(2)アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物の含気率(オーバーラン(%))の測定
 得られた各アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物を-4℃環境下で、52.21mL容積(撹拌後体積)の容器に移し、すり切りいっぱいとしたときの組成物重量(撹拌後重量)を計測した。
(2) Measurement of the aeration rate (overrun (%)) of the ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition Each of the obtained ice cream-like aerated emulsified compositions was subjected to 52.21 mL volume (stirring) in a -4 ° C environment. The composition weight (weight after stirring) was measured when the mixture was transferred to a container (after volume) and fully ground.
 上記計測した撹拌前重量及び撹拌前体積ならびに撹拌後重量及び撹拌後体積の値よりオーバーラン(%)を上述の式を用いて算出した。各配合の撹拌前重量及び撹拌前体積の値、得られた各アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物の撹拌後重量及び撹拌後体積の値、ならびに算出された各オーバーラン(%)の値を以下の表2に示す。 The overrun (%) was calculated from the measured pre-stirring weight and pre-stirring volume, and the post-stirring weight and post-stirring volume values using the above formula. The values of the pre-stirring weight and pre-stirring volume of each formulation, the post-stirring weight and post-stirring volume values of each ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition obtained, and the calculated overrun (%) values are as follows. It is shown in Table 2 of.

 実施例1-5及び比較例1,2,4-8の各アイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物の油脂配合量(質量%)とオーバーラン(%)と関係を示すグラフを図1に示す。 FIG. 1 shows a graph showing the relationship between the fat content (mass%) and overrun (%) of each ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1, 2 and 4-8.
 この結果より、いずれの油脂を用いた場合においても、油脂配合量が20~25質量%の間にオーバーラン(%)が急激に変化することが確認され、特に20~23質量%の間に存在する変曲点により、油脂配合量を23質量%未満とすることによって、オーバーラン(%)を比較的高い値に維持できることが明らかとなった。 From this result, it was confirmed that the overrun (%) changed abruptly when the amount of the fat and oil blended was between 20 and 25% by mass, and particularly between 20 and 23% by mass, regardless of which fat or oil was used. It was clarified that the overrun (%) can be maintained at a relatively high value by setting the amount of fat and oil to be less than 23% by mass due to the existing inflection points.
(2)サイクロデキストリンと水溶性ゲル化剤との併用効果
 以下の表3の配合にしたがって、各成分を20,000rpmで10分間撹拌して混和した後、各組成物中の油滴の状態を顕微鏡で観察した。表中の各成分の量は質量%にて示される。
(2) Effect of combined use of cyclodextrin and water-soluble gelling agent According to the formulation shown in Table 3 below, each component was stirred and mixed at 20,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and then the state of oil droplets in each composition was changed. Observed with a microscope. The amount of each component in the table is shown in% by mass.

 各組成物中の油滴の観察結果を図2に示す。
 サイクロデキストリン及び水溶性ゲル化剤を併用する実施例Aにおいて、油滴は細かく、かつ組成物全体に分散して存在していることが観察された(図2(1))。このような組成物を凍結することによって、標準的なアイスクリームと同様の柔らかさや滑らかさを有するアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物を達成することができる。
The observation results of oil droplets in each composition are shown in FIG.
In Example A in which cyclodextrin and a water-soluble gelling agent were used in combination, it was observed that the oil droplets were finely distributed and present in the entire composition (FIG. 2 (1)). By freezing such a composition, an ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition having the same softness and smoothness as a standard ice cream can be achieved.
 一方、サイクロデキストリンを含むが、水溶性ゲル化剤を含まない比較例Aにおいては、実施例Aと比べて油滴は大きく、また組成物中に密に存在しているところと疎になっているところがあり、分散が一様ではないことが観察された(図2(2))。このような組成物を凍結すると、組成物中の氷結晶が大きくなりザリザリとした食感を生じ、標準的なアイスクリームと同様の柔らかさや滑らかさを達成することはできなかった。また、乳化安定性が低いことからソフトクリーム様とした場合に保形性が乏しく、すぐに溶けてしまうことが確認された。 On the other hand, in Comparative Example A containing cyclodextrin but not containing the water-soluble gelling agent, the oil droplets were larger than those in Example A, and the oil droplets were sparsely present in the composition. It was observed that there were some spots and the dispersion was not uniform (Fig. 2 (2)). When such a composition was frozen, the ice crystals in the composition became large and a rough texture was produced, and it was not possible to achieve the same softness and smoothness as standard ice cream. In addition, it was confirmed that the soft serve ice cream has poor shape retention due to its low emulsification stability and dissolves immediately.
 そして、水溶性ゲル化剤を含むが、サイクロデキストリンを含まない比較例Cにおいては、非常に大きな油滴が組成物中に分散していることが観察された(図2(3))。比較例Cは、サイクロデキストリンを含まないため厳密には乳化しておらず、水溶性ゲル化剤により若干粘度が増加しているだけの組成物であった。このような組成物を凍結すると、氷結晶がかなり大きくなり氷菓のようなじゃりじゃりした食感を有することが確認され、標準的なアイスクリームと同様の柔らかさや滑らかさを達成することはできなかった。 Then, in Comparative Example C containing a water-soluble gelling agent but not containing cyclodextrin, it was observed that very large oil droplets were dispersed in the composition (Fig. 2 (3)). Comparative Example C was a composition that was not strictly emulsified because it did not contain cyclodextrin, and whose viscosity was only slightly increased by the water-soluble gelling agent. When such a composition is frozen, it has been confirmed that the ice crystals become considerably large and have a crunchy texture like ice cream, and it is not possible to achieve the same softness and smoothness as standard ice cream. rice field.
 この結果より、水及び油脂を含む組成物に、水溶性ゲル化剤とサイクロデキストリンとを併用することにより、組成物中に油脂を細かく一様に分散させることができ、これを凍結することによりアイスクリーム特有の柔らかで滑らかな食感を有するアイスクリーム様含気乳化組成物が得られることが確認された。水及び油脂を含む組成物に水溶性ゲル化剤とサイクロデキストリンとを配合した組成物の形態は、水溶性ゲル化剤又はサイクロデキストリンのいずれかを配合した組成物のいずれの形態とも明らかに異なるものであり、水溶性ゲル化剤とサイクロデキストリンとの併用によりもたらされる効果は、いずれかを単独で配合した組成物からは予測し得ないものであった。

 
From this result, by using a water-soluble gelling agent and cyclodextrin in combination with a composition containing water and fats and oils, the fats and oils can be finely and uniformly dispersed in the composition, and by freezing this, the fats and oils can be finely and uniformly dispersed. It was confirmed that an ice cream-like aerated emulsified composition having a soft and smooth texture peculiar to ice cream can be obtained. The form of a composition containing a water-soluble gelling agent and cyclodextrin in a composition containing water and fats and oils is clearly different from any form of a composition containing either a water-soluble gelling agent or cyclodextrin. However, the effect brought about by the combined use of the water-soluble gelling agent and cyclodextrin was unpredictable from the composition in which either one was blended alone.
